Heidi Klum recently denied allegations that she flew on disgraced deceased Jeffrey Epstein‘s private airplane.
The allegation about Heidi and the accused sex trafficker surfaced from court documents that were made public from a 2015 lawsuit filed by sex trafficking survivor Virginia Roberts Giuffre against his accused accomplice, British socialite Ghislaine Maxwell.
Virginia Roberts Giuffre talks about how she was trafficked by Jeffrey Epstein and allegedly had sex with Prince Andrew when she was 17 on BBC One’s ‘Panorama, The Prince and the Epstein Scandal’
Heidi‘s lawyer quickly issued a statement in Heidi’s defense, telling People, “Any reference to Heidi Klum in connection with Jeffrey Epstein is totally false. Heidi Klum’s name and initials were absent from all the flight logs which were released. Many high profile people are listed, but Ms. Klum is not one of them. The explanation is simple. She has never been on any of Mr. Epstein’s planes. And that is because she did not know Mr. Epstein and was never on his island.”
The German-born American model herself added, “I have been watching the news and see that I have been mistakenly named as a passenger on one of Mr. Epstein’s flights. I did not know Mr. Epstein and therefore have never been on his planes, at his homes or his island. I am speaking up as I do not want to be falsely associated with Mr. Epstein and the horrific story surrounding him. I stand with the victims who have so bravely come forward and I too want the truth to come out and for justice to prevail.”
In July 2013, our favorite bubbly German supermodel took to the red carpet for America’s Got Talent yet again, this time decked out in a creation that was shining, shimmering, and totally bringing sexy back (literally).

The towering blonde showed up at the post-show event in New York looking absolutely stunning in a blue ensemble, letting the paparazzi click away as she gamely posed with co-judge and former Spice Girl Mel B, who wore a bronze metallic number to complement Klum’s blue sequined dress.

We would have prematurely brought out our Christmas trees had we known that these two dazzling beauties were going to put on an ornament showdown.
Heidi let her dress do the dazzling on the red carpet for her that night, picking out a mesh piece adorned with blue sequins of varying sizes and hues. As if the deep, sexy plunge at the front wasn’t enough, the back had been entirely cut out as well — not that we’re complaining.

Heidi opted to break the sea of blue with a black belt with silver details and a pair of black Yves Saint Laurent t-strap pumps. She pushed her hair back into a sleek pony to finish the look.
